Setting Up the BoomBox
1. For Monolights and studio strobes with Bowens mounts, align the mounting
tabs with the Bowens mount and insert the BoomBox into the Bowens mount.
Turn the BoomBox clockwise until it locks.
2.
Open the BoomBox, and push the center ring
over the shaft until it’s all the way in, just like
an umbrella.
Tip: You may find it easier to hold the base of the shaft
through the side opening while pushing the center
ring over it.
3.
BB-ST-1024-V2 and BB-ST-1255-V2 only:
Adjust the BoomBox’s orientation by loosening
the adapter ring's thumbscrew and rotating the
BoomBox. Tighten the thumbscrew until secure.
Optional: To add the deflector to the BoomBox,
screw the deflector extension into the center stem.
Once it’s attached, slide the deflector plate onto the
extension.
Try experimenting with the curved side of the
deflector facing out or in, and by varying the distance
from the light source.

Attaching the Diusers
The inner and outer diusers add two levels of diusion that soften and spread the
light for an even and flattering eect. The diusers can be used with or without
the deflector plate.
1. Attach the inner diuser by attaching the diuser's touch-connect strips to
the touch connect tabs inside the BoomBox.
2. Attach the outer diuser by pressing the touch-
connect strips against the inner rim of the
BoomBox.

Removing the BoomBox
To remove the BoomBox from a Bowens mount:
1. Press the light fixture’s Bowens release.
2.
Turn the BoomBox counterclockwise and remove
it from the light.

extension. Then close the BoomBox by carefully
pulling on the center ring.

around the BoomBox adapter ring.

Use a Philips screwdriver to remove the screws
and washers, then remove the thumbscrew and
washer.
